@imprezamk I don't. It's simpler to let others deal with the miscreants. I've had my boost of reputation out of it, and there was nothing left for me in that role anyway.
You could maybe have a small piece somewhere creating drag. If you are sure it's not that, it could be mass. Make sure that collisions are disabled on all moving parts, as that can cause roll too.
Another common mistake is airfoil of the vertical stabilizer or rudder not being symmetric.
@Clutch123 I can no longer help you with that kind of thing, and Andrew generally doesn't bother with the community. I think @Vincent is your best bet.
(Vincent, if you are reading this, bottom comment)
@LobsterBisque128 you are allowed to use any engines you want, of course. I have provided these for the people who have no previous experience in making things levitate. As for the rest, I don't quite understand what you mean.
@BeastHunter that's strictly a US problem. I come from a nation that has been enslaved throughout most of the history, and that doesn't even have black people. Hence, I am completely insensitive to that word, and it doesn't impact my belief in freedom of speech one bit. Quite the opposite, in fact. If we ban words that offend some people, more people will find new words that offend them. We might as well, at that point, make a list of words approved by the government and not use any others.
In the culture I come from, nobody is offended by pejoratives. They are just names for certain groups of people.
Having test-flown this plane, I have a few more suggestions. You should enable trim on elevators, and flaps are set so that one goes up and the other down when VTOL slider is moved. Other than that, very pleasant build to fly.
You should try to get elevator hinge line straight. You can achieve that with Overload. Other than that, exceptionally good looking build for a new guy, very promising.
Custom wings are very rare on first builds.
I advise using tags to make your build easier to find by others in the future.
Welcome to the community.
The build is very nice. I like it.
I'd just like to offer a small correction to the description: Tu-128 was an interceptor, not a fighter. The role of an interceptor is as far removed from the role of a fighter as is a bomber or an attacker. It's not a plane built for air superiority, but solely for taking out incoming bombers and reconnaissance aircraft.
@CookieCrumzReturns new mods are pretty good too. Old community members, all of them.
I'm still here too, just not moderating. I'm also still making builds, though I rarely actually post them.
@CanadianAircraftBuilder it was that really well built twin by a bronze user. You gave it quite a praise. It was a copy that intentionally bypassed successor system.
@Imvictor you should never claim other people's builds as your own. The build you stole is a very popular build of my friend.
Stealing builds is against the rules.
@JuliusCeasor98 it's all right. The site has a system for finding original builds, and links them automatically. Still, thanks. I'm glad you like this build.
@CarMaker20 it's not worth it. You get to deal with a bunch of annoying users who hate your guts because you are enforcing the rules they have agreed to follow. I have received literal death threats when I was a moderator.
@CarMaker20 it comes with a temporary ban, duration of which depends on the severity of the offense. When this post was made, it wasn't so. A strike was a permanent note visible only to the moderators.
I am no longer a moderator though. Things might have changed these days.
There are better ways to control an airship than a gyroscope. Mine (you can find it on my profile) uses differential vertical thrust for buoyancy and attitude control.
I like the design, though it could use some refinement. I believe future iterations will be even better. If you need any tips, feel free to ping me, or find me on Discord.
@Sockdragger Thank you. I'm glad you've enjoyed the little details, I was wondering if anyone will notice them when I was building it.

It looks really nice. I'll accept it without any penalty, despite the part count. Thanks for the entry (:
@XandyCandy this challenge is still ongoing. You are free to participate.
@Randomplayer sure.
@ShocK69 why don't you make one?
@32 it isn't. It has too few parts, and I don't think it stands enough chance to win for me to excuse that. It is an interesting build though.
@BluestBoi what part is bothering you exactly?
@Kerbango it's very nice.
You could do LZ-120 for my challenge.
@UnmanagedReservoir you can't limit art, eh?

@GermanPaperProjects @Graingy for clarification of my attitude, refer to the comment below.
@Graingy no worries.
This is a very impressive trawler. I don't think I've seen actual funcfioning trawling features before in the game.
@Dathcha ah, the good old times XD

It took you a while to reply XD
I'm always happy to help promising shipbuilders.
I now run a Discord server for shipbuilding on SimplePlanes. Drop by if you're not already in it.

@Fish83828 lol
@Fish83828 I'm glad you like it.
@RedAndGreenAmongus a lot of effort went into reducing the part count. I'm glad it was worth it.
@CanadianAircraftBuilder original was by my buddy Authros, I watched it being made, so easily recognized it.

@CanadianAircraftBuilder @MAPA link to the original build. This is a copy.

@JacksEpicGamingYT developers are above moderators. They have higher authority.
@Shootingstar07 Sure.
@Vincent, can you help out here?
@DeveloperKorzalerke There is a saying where I'm from. Roughly translated, goes "What a smart man is ashamed of, a fool is proud of".
It's a nice conversion. Appropriate for this chassis.
@DuskV yes. The engines themselves would be in a room next to the intakes, and would deliver power to the propellers via shafts.
@CarMaker20 I was a moderator.

Oh, hi (:
@UmbrellaCorporation why delete your comments?
@UmbrellaCorporation I can contact him the same way you can: through the contact link in the footer of the page. Unless it is absolutely urgent.
@UmbrellaCorporation hardly. I haven't heard from the guy since I stopped being a moderator.
@UmbrellaCorporation hello.

@Diloph there's both auto-credit and description credit.
@HuskyDynamics01 nice upgrade.
@BgGaming it's some ancient background mod whose name I forgot. I don't have it anymore.
